Smart Switch isn't used to connect the watch. In the watch itself, go to settings/general/transfer watch to new phone and follow instructions.

Your best bet would appear to be to both uninstall the Wear app from the phone factory reset your watch, set it up and then reinstall the Wear app and try connecting again. You can restore your backup laer, or just start from scratch.

It is possible the watch is defective in some way. Have you tried text support? Tap the support tab in the members app and select text support.

Why $84? Is the watch not under warranty?
